Workers at a Swiss ski resort recently found a pair of corpses frozen in the Tsanfleuron glacier in Switzerland, according to the BBC. Some think they belong to Marcelin and Francine Dumoulin, Swiss farmers who disappeared in the area in 1942. Their bodies have eluded search efforts until now.

The couple's youngest daughter Marceline Udry-Dumoulin, now 79, told the Swiss press that she had hoped she could one day give her parents a proper funeral. The Swiss police told Swiss media they had not yet performed a DNA test, but would do so in the next few days.

You probably don't want to hear about climate change right now. But climatologists did tell the BBC that rising global temperatures could be partially to thank for causing the glacier to recede enough to reveal these two corpses.

And that lines up with a global pattern. "Over 90 per cent of the measured alpine glaciers in the world are retreating," according to the United States' National Snow and Ice Data Center. You can blame a combination of rising temperatures, and increased dust from agriculture and industry for that.

There's also plenty of anecdotal evidence to support the fact that Switzerland's glaciers have tended to retreat this century. Back in 2013, Swiss tourists recounted stories to Phys.org about having to walk further in the 25 to 50 years they'd been visiting the Morteratsch glacier in Eastern Switzerland.

Who knows what other mysteries might be frozen beneath the alpine ice, just waiting to be revealed.

I would suspect that the bodies were exposed more due to the natural movement of the glacier... But then why spoil something that can be hijack for other political propaganda purposes. Climates change.. Always.

Every once and a while, we get the chance to peek into an alternate timeline and see how things could have played out if a single decision had gone a different way. And with the new Nokia 8, that's exactly what we're getting.
